To get a mid week takeaway

I’ve just been to the fridge, and the meat I was planning on cooking is past it’s sell by date and a little bit smelly!

Do I go to my local and see what they have? Or do I commence sitting on arse and order a pizza?

YABU - Get to the shops you lazy fish wife

YANBU - Get pizza on a Tuesday - live in the edge

We usually have our weekly takeaway on a Thursday so there's no judgement from me in relation to a midweek takeaway.

Serenity45 · 01/12/2020 16:06

We had Dominos last Wednesday and felt like devils YANBU it's good to know it's not just us Blush

Floralnomad · 01/12/2020 16:06

We have takeaway any day of the week if that’s what we fancy . Pizza Hut and dominos do BOGOF on Tuesday so an ideal day for a pizza .

Midweek takeaways are absolutely the best!

Hm2020 · 01/12/2020 16:08

I had kfc last night it’s fine

I’d have a takeaway any day of the week if I fancied it... it’s just food that I bought instead of cooked 😂

LunaLoveFood · 01/12/2020 16:10

We usually have a takeaway on a Tuesday or Wednesday as that's our busy days at work and neither of us can be bothered to cook.

PrincessPain · 01/12/2020 16:11

We mainly have takeaways on weekdays. And as husband works nights/early mornings we usually only order from the ones that are open and delivering at 1pm.

TrixieHeliotrope · 01/12/2020 16:11

Pizza's great!

Palavah · 01/12/2020 16:11

I feel the benefit of a midweek takeaway much more than a weekend one.

IHaveBrilloHair · 01/12/2020 16:12

Get the takeaway.

LaurieFairyCake · 01/12/2020 16:13

We get takeaway 2 or 3 times a week

Got to keep that economy going Wink

DigitalChristmas · 01/12/2020 16:13

Support a local business and get a midweek takeaway. Enjoy

Changethetoner · 01/12/2020 16:13

Mid-week take out is only permissible if you are NOT going to get one at the weekend as well. Otherwise - oink oink.

Lyricallie · 01/12/2020 16:14

Do it! I got an Indian last Thursday and it made it feel like a Friday night!

LittleMissNaice · 01/12/2020 16:15

20% off on Just Eat on a Tuesday. Or so I hear. Ahem.

Oink oink... really? A potential overindulgence for 2 meals out of 21 for the week is hardly something to be referred to as “oink oink”

Pizza

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 01/12/2020 16:18

You made me fancy a Chinese takeaway - but I’ve just checked my local for opening times only to discover they’re only open from Thursday to Sunday 😮😡

Wolfiefan · 01/12/2020 16:18

Enjoy OP!!

TrickorTreacle · 01/12/2020 16:19

There is a reason why takeaways are open 7 days a week.

I put YANBU, but only the OP can decide. It's their prerogative.

RachelHRD · 01/12/2020 16:21

There was a mix up with my bf's food delivery last week and I was there for lunch but it hadn't arrived. He's wfh so we had a lunchtime takeaway delivered, felt so naughty but was delicious!! Go for it 😁

CoconutGrove · 01/12/2020 16:24

During the first lockdown we had takeaway every Tuesday. Normally only have it every 2 months or so, but there wasnt much else to do!

CoconutGrove · 01/12/2020 16:25

Some restaurants do discounts on Tuesday on Just Eat
